23 Description: chiark system administration scripts
24 This package contains a number of small administration scripts used
25 by chiark.greenend.org.uk and other systems belonging to the Sinister
26 Greenend Organisation. Featuring:
28 chiark-named-conf: a tool for managing nameserver configurations
29 and checking for suspected DNS problems. Its main functions are to
30 check that delegations are appropriate and working, that secondary
31 zones are slaved from the right places, and to generate a
32 configuration for BIND, from its own input file.
34 sync-accounts: a simple but flexible account info synchroniser.
35 sync-accounts is a tool for copying un*x account data from remote
36 systems and installing it locally. It is flexible and reasonably
37 straightforward, but lacks integration with other distributed
38 databases such as NIS.
